I'm really worried about my mom's condition. The doctors have found she has a ventricular septal defect and mentioned that an operation right now is pretty risky. Is there any other treatment option we could consider to help her?

I'm concerned about my blood pressure; it's around 140 over 88. I'm wondering what precautions I should take? Also, what should I include in my diet? And could you recommend some exercises I should consider? I'm 184 cm tall and weigh 80 kg.
To help lower your blood pressure, you should focus on maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Start by incorporating a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins while limiting your intake of saturated fats, cholesterol, and sodium. Consider the DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) diet as a guide. Additionally, engage in regular physical activity such as brisk walking, jogging, cycling, or swimming for at least 30 minutes most days of the week. Aim to achieve and maintain a healthy weight by combining a balanced diet with exercise. It's also important to manage stress levels, get an adequate amount of quality sleep, and limit alcohol consumption. In terms of medication, if lifestyle modifications are not sufficient, you may need to consult a healthcare provider for prescription antihypertensive medications
